We moved to the blue ridge a few years ago. We definitely never saw one back home. This one was in the bathroom and our cats made sure we knew about it. It was scared, but otherwise unharmed. I can’t tell you how excited we were to see it glide from the second story deck upon release!!

They are quite similar, but we live in the woods in SW VA now. When we lived in RVA I would’ve assumed it was a lost pet SG, but that’s not very likely where we are. A veritable host of predators roam between our house and the nearest neighbor.

Awesome! Haven't seen any in the RVA in the 17 years I've been here. Growing up in NoVA, our house backed up to parkland and we'd see 'em all the time flying in the trees, or occasionally when one of our cats was able to grab one for a snack. Fortunately, that was rare for her to catch them, as she and our other two primarily focused on mice...

I was walking into Roots across the street when a flurry of cops, an ambulance, and a fire truck showed up to the intersection. They took a stretcher into the Village Cafe and brought out a man who was wearing a neon yellow safety vest. He was holding a towel to his face, but luckily he didn’t appear to be in a life or death situation. As I was leaving, they were roping off the intersection with crime scene tape and my phone buzzed with the VCU alert.
Really messed up that someone would shoot a parking meter worker just trying to do a job and make money.

That looks like a Sugar Glider to me.

Life goal achieved! Not only got to see one up close, but got to see it gently glide to the ground from our second story deck. That was cool!

Is this not a reasonable place to park?

People really are incredible. Shooting someone doing their job over $25. Jail time vs a little pocket change. Just crazy.

I was told by someone at the bar that a parking meter worker was shot somewhere farther up Grace Street. A driver returned to his car and found the meter guy processing a ticket, shot him, and ran away. That's really stupid because if the meter guy had already started the ticket process then the car's plate is in his ticket machine as the last entry. Also, the car's still there.
The victim went into the Village for help, and Grace and Harrison were blocked for about an hour while the cops looked for shell casings.
So some poor guy's in the hospital and the Village is losing a night of business because some hothead didn't want a $25 ticket.

I've been pulled over twice by RPD lol. First time was at Cary and Nansmond, some idiot nearly ran into me when I was leaving Kroger going north on Nansmond across Cary because of the shift there.
Cop does a u-turn in the middle of Cary and pulls me over. I proceed to tell him I did nothing wrong and explained the situation of what happened. So he goes back to his car and sits there for at least 20 minutes with his lights on (I had gone to Kroger to get medicine at 8pm on a Friday night because I had a suspected stomach ulcer and was in CRAZY pain, so I just had to sit there and suffer). After 20 minutes 2 other squad cars pull up and one of the other officers told me I could go, because that dickwad cop couldn't tell me himself he was wrong.
Other time was on Monument west of 195. Was going 48 because I was almost to Willow Lawn and thought it had already changed to 45, but it was still 35 in the city, around Westmoreland I think. I explained it was an honest mistake to the officer but he wrote me a ticket anyway.
RPD can eat my ass.
